What a delight! A little pricey if you are not a pass holder. But it's a fun experience. You go through the park and see all of the animals. The tour guides are knowledgeable and fun! I have done this multiple times and the giraffes never disappoint! Good for most ages. You stand up on the back of a moving truck and hold in. Some bumps along the way. It's also handicapable friendly.

This was such an amazing experience!! Our tour guide was so knowledgeable and funny, it made for a very fun and engaging tour. The animals were some of the sweetest, and they are so loved by all the staff there. Their passion and dedication is unmatched, they’re doing some really great work. Everyone on the tour had a smile as they left, and we have some wonderful photos to remind us of the memories!

I was sceptacle about taking this tour. However it was a great experience and worth doing once. The animals are well taken care of and I enjoyed the guides Kayla, Eric and Brandon. They were knowledgeable and answered all questions.

Do not plan on buying tickets just for the safari and going cause it is NOT an option and unfortunately on the website they are not clear about this. My husband and I bought 2 adult tickets for the safari online. We headed over there and parked very far away and then took a tram car to the main entrance and waited on a long line. Once we got to the ticket desk, we were told we needed to buy an additional 2 tickets for the park, which were priced at $140 each ($280 total). So now let me remind you, we already spent a $70 each ($140 total) for 2 tickets for the safari. And now on top of that, we were about to spend $280 to get into the park just to have access to the safari???? The website only stated on the order form/confirmation that this ticket is not for park admission, but we weren't planning on going to the park so that didn't matter to us. It did not say you need to buy 2 tickets to the park In order to have access to the safari. That's what it should've said, but they were very unclear about it. I would feel so bad to have somebody do the same thing we did, especially if they were with children, this would have been very upsetting time consuming and extremely costly for the entire family. And obviously we asked to get refunded and went home because we were not trying to spend $420 for 30 mins in a safari.... it just didn't make any sense.Thank god we only drove forty minutes away, so it wasn't that big of a deal for us but again I would hate for someone to experience what we did today so I just wanted to throw this out there and let everybody know.

Wasn't bad,but also wasn't worth the price. The guides were nice and knowledgeable and did their best, but the heat was oppressive, the animals smart enough to stay in the shade, more or less immobile as we stood on a flatbed truck and drove through. I don't think our group was that big, but it felt tight especially at the giraffe feeding. Couldn't maneuver much, take a pic, feed the giraffes, stay out of other guest photos and avoid a stray tongue looking for more lettuce. Again, wasn't bad,but wasn't the highlight we were hoping it would be.
